We dedicated two classes today to our Social Studies play. Tomorrow, in our small writing groups, we will write and share our chosen sections. For homework tomorrow evening, one member in each group will have to type up their section of our play and email it to me at [email protected] 8B We had our final class today for peer editing our Spirited Away essays. Some students printed their copy in class this morning, other will print it this evening and bring it to class tomorrow. In class tomorrow, we will have a chance to complete the corresponding rubric with a self evaluation and submit final copies. We shared our story excerpts and then students worked in their small writing groups to put the finishing touches on their writing. For homework this evening, one member in each group is typing up their section of our play and emailing it to me at [email protected] NOTICE There is a schedule change tomorrow. During periods 1&2 8A will be with me and 8B will be with Mr. Kurcwal. During period 4, 8A will be with Mr. Kurcwal and 8B will be with me. During period 6, we'll all be at a concert in the gym.

We spent two classes today building the foundation for our Bunraku-style play. There were lots of really exciting and interesting ideas and I look forward to discovering where this story is going! 8B We had 1 period for our Bunraku plays. Again, I heard lots of interesting ideas and witnessed some wonderfully intentional collaboration. On Monday, we'll try to put together everything we've worked on so far. We also had 1 period dedicated to editing out Spirited Away essays. Based on our progress, I will probably be collecting final drafts (with completed rubrics) Thursday of next week. I'll be away tomorrow. You'll have a substitute in my room. Hope everyone has a great weekend. I'll see you on Monday. |
